"I Miss John Wayne" lyrics

Well John Wayne ain't in Hollywood today
They replaced him with some cowboys that are gay
And all the things that I love, somebody's screwin' up
Our kids'll be the ones who pay
There are times you can't cash my checks
That's the only thing that's still the same
These cartoons that they make today, they outta be ashamed
I miss Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse

And I miss how it used to be, when we could count on bein' free
And George Strait on the radio
I miss all those summer nights down by the riverside
With a case of beer and my old 68
No things today, they just ain't the same
I miss my grandpa, and I miss John Wayne

Well that man in D.C. he can kiss my ass
He won't leave me be, and let me smoke my grass
He likes my money though, gives it to some other Joe
Who's never worked a day in his whole life
And he says we all need a change
Well I think he's right but in the other way
'Cause it ain't about who's rich or poor
It's about the chance for more, livin' in the good ol' USA

And I miss how it used to be, when we could count on bein' free
And George Strait on the radio
I miss all those summer nights down by the riverside
With a case of beer and my old 68
No things today, they just ain't the same
I miss my grandpa, and I miss John Wayne

And I miss 1983, when everyone I loved was still alive
No things today, they just ain't the same
I miss my Grandpa, I miss John Wayne
I love you Grandpa, I miss John Wayne
